BOOM. BOOM. BOOM.
Three figures clashed in the sky. Afterimages streaked. Speed beyond human comprehension.
"Is this even humanly possible?!"
"So fast! We can only see afterimages!"
The Ripple warriors' worldviews shattered. Our power is nothing.
Jonathan and Zeppeli grew more alarmed with each exchange. He's using us as whetstones. Testing his new body.
DIO struck. Fists slammed into their guts. Acid spewed. He grabbed their heads. Smashed them together. Tossed them like rags.
"Hahaha! JOJO, you know what? I'm high right now! Immortal! No fear of sunlight or Ripple! Absolute power! I'm the Ultimate Being on this planet!"
The sun rose. Before, DIO would've fled. But now—bathed in light—he stood triumphant.
"DIO's in sunlight?!"
Despair crushed them.
DIO turned to Jonathan. "JOJO, our grudge ends here! Die! Wryyyyyyyyy!"
He charged. Jonathan gritted his teeth. Raised his hands. "Solar Flare!"
Blinding light. DIO's eyes burned. "My eyes! My eyes!"
The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
Jonathan shouted, "Zeppeli-san! We have to use Miss Perilla's gift!"
"Right, JOJO!"
They pulled out Potara Earrings. Left ear. Right ear.
Their bodies flew together. White light exploded. When it faded—
A single man stood. Muscular. Tall. Bearded. Face like Jonathan and Zeppeli merged.
"They fused?!"
"Two people became one?! Impossible!"
Speedwagon rubbed his eyes.
Dark DIO's face darkened. "Hmph! So you merged? You were weaker than me combined. Fusion changes nothing!"
He lunged. The man vanished. Pain exploded in DIO's cheek. He flew.
DIO clutched his face. "Damn... who are you?! How are you this strong?!"
"Me?"
The voice echoed—Jonathan and Zeppeli overlapping. "Since I'm the fusion of Jonathan Joestar and Will Anthonio Zeppeli, I'll be Jonathan·Zeppeli."
"Impossible! Fusion shouldn't make you this strong!"
Perilla spoke. "My Potara Earrings aren't simple addition. JOJO and Zeppeli share bonds—teacher and student, similar spirits, the Golden Spirit. Their fusion is multiplicative."
DIO's face twisted. Not addition. Multiplication. That's absurd!
"You're lying! I, DIO, am the strongest!"
He charged again. Jonathan·Zeppeli released his aura. Blasted DIO backward.
Before DIO stabilized, Jonathan·Zeppeli teleported behind him. Kicked. Severed him in half.
"Extreme Ripple Overdrive!"
His fist obliterated DIO's lower body. Ash scattered.
DIO regenerated. The Dark Dragon Ball lets me regenerate from just a head.
But fear crept in.
"DIO, you're finished. This time, I'll erase you completely. No more evil."
Jonathan·Zeppeli cupped his hands at his side. Energy gathered. "Ka... me... ha..."
"Damn it! I'll be this planet's king! I can fire energy too!"
DIO unleashed all his power. Black energy surged.
Perilla shook her head. "Wild. Unfocused. He's already lost."
His energy equals his own strength. But the Kamehameha amplifies output.
"Me... HA!"
Blue energy erupted. Met the black wave. The black energy held for a moment—then collapsed.
The Kamehameha swallowed DIO.
"Impossible... I, DIO... Ahhhhh!"
Ash. Nothing remained.
December 4, 1888. Dio Brando was destroyed.
